Mark your calendars! This year the Iowa Latino Heritage Festival is being held at a brand new location. Please help us welcome the festival to SOUTHRIDGE MALL.
About the Festival
The First Annual Latino Heritage Festival was held on May 25, 2002 in Des Moines’ downtown area. It was a setting which made Iowans aware of the positive aspects the Latino brings to the community.
The event gives the Latino community a sense of accomplishment and ethnic pride. This event now has the distinction of not only being the largest Latino Festival in the state, but is the largest ethnic event in the state of Iowa. Today the festival is held annually during the month of September to help celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month.
